Feature – funding a games start up

[Aphra K]

So I am just finalising with Pavel Barter the next feature which will focus on the various state schemes available for funding and supporting a games start up.

Hope to have it up to coincide with the Games Gig & MS events towards the end of next week.

we will look at

1) NDRC Launchpad
2) EI New Frontiers
3) EI Feasibility Funding
4) EI Competitive Start Fund
5) EI iGap
6) EI HPSU
7) Crowd funding

Did we miss anything? I hope not….obviously there is VC funding…but that is for another day.

Oh, and there is a new game to announce too…from a new company not on here before..

What about a mention of the incubation centers in the ITs and universities? They are often tied in with some of these funding programs.

ok so the current feature tries to cover some of the key funding supports for game start ups and gives some feedback from games companies who have had experience of them. If you have something else to add please feel free to discuss here…

Or if you think we missed out on something important shout now so we can include it in a future article

Thanks to Pavel and all the interviewees for their time
